Because I suck at trading FX, that's why.

I would not *force* people to buy insurance, that's what Democrats do. I would say that if you want to be covered against a loss caused by severe weather you should buy insurance. You should also buy (or grow) your own food, pay your own heating bills, etc. It's Democrats who say that...

Is it any shock that friends, relatives, and children of the illegal immigrants are voting for the illegal immigration party?

Except that those theories require a lot of magic. Magically, proteins form. By chance, some lipid bubbles last longer because they got more of the good, stabilizing proteins. But having good, stabilizing proteins doesn't mean that as the lipid bubble gets bigger it is any more likely than...

This is all very well as arm chair speculation goes. There may be some truth to it. But I find it odd that the same people who will shoot down any evidence for a spiritual existence will accept a flimsy hand waving argument like this as "proof" that we've cracked the problem of life's origin...

Nope. Self defense is not murder, so if the government goes to war when we've been attacked and goes after the actual bad guys that's not murder. But when the government goes to war for bad reasons, as Bush and Obama have done, that's murder, and not okay.

You are welcome to contribute to a charity that insures poor people from tornado damage. Which I am sure you will do, given your obvious deep concern.

So if the government robs on your behalf, that makes it okay.

Why is it bonkers to say that people who want to be protected for rare but devastating weather damage should buy insurance for that? If I want to be compensated for my house burning down I must buy insurance. Why is it bonkers to say that if I want to be compensated for tornado damage I should...

The OP proves the point of the article. Free Thinker is too stupid to recognize the stupidity in his own party.

Today, while running to be the Republican nominee for president, Romney takes positions that are almost 100% the opposite of what he did and said as governor of Massachusetts. How can you trust that guy? Nobody has a clue as to whether we'll get Romney-the-conservative-Republican or...

Please prove this assertion. Yes, Ron Paul is against a great deal of what our federal government does. That's because very little of what congress does is actually authorized by the constitution.

Ron Paul the Racist: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Rv0Z5SNrF4 The usual lies we get from liberals. Ron Paul is a kook because he wants to uphold the Constitution, a document that has been largely ignored for the better part of a century. Which is exactly how liberals want it to be.

The most pro-peace candidate is Ron Paul. Which is something the Huffington Post (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Democratic Party) does not want to admit. (I remember back in 2008 when Hillary Clinton, who had voted for the Iraq war, said to an audience during her campaign that "all the...

Yup. We all know that professional traders are as likely to go short as go long. But they only get blamed when they go long. Unless the commodity is gold or silver, in which case they get blamed by the GATA crowd when they go short.

Please don't give Obama any more ideas. Will Americans ever grow up and realize that God never promised them cheap gas? Will they ever recognize that it is not the responsibility of congress or the president to set commodity prices? The one thing useful our government could do to bring...

Because they have more sense than the Americans, who are on the same side as Al Qaeda on this issue.

An irrelevant post from a man who can't discuss protobiology in a useful way but can bash Christianity at every opportunity. I have made it clear that I have no truck with "God of the Gaps" arguments. I also have no truck with posers who pretend they have the solution to a thorny scientific...

The "details of the transition from inanimate components to simple lifeforms" is the whole crux of the matter. You can't sweep that under the rug as if it was some minor issue. Yes, the laws of chemistry must be obeyed. Which is precisely the problem. In a laboratory one could synthesize...

As Paul correctly pointed out, that "federal money" is all money that the people and the states would have if the federal government didn't take it. So it's a zero sum game. We're in the mess we're in because everybody except Ron Paul thinks that the federal government is an infinite source...
